It still amazes me even after so many times!!!
I come in Monday before the competition and our competitors have changed over night !!!
Their bodies are super lean with little round muscle bellies and skinny little faces!!!
By now they are tired, weak and a bit cranky (lol)…
Everything will annoy them and set up an argument 😉
Or they may get super sensitive and start crying easily ….
You have to go with it and adjust!!!!
Don’t take anything seriously that comes out of a close to competition girls mouth .
And competitors take a deep breath and know that you are super sensitive and that you are seeing things different for right now (appologize to the husbands)!
After the competition you will realize that this may have been your most powerful time!!!
You are drinking two gallons of water per day, eating super dry chicken breast without taste, overloading on asparagus that after this week you can no longer see…
You are tired but yet go to work everyday, fit in a super intense workout, come home and fall asleep during dinner!
So why is this week so impowering?
Because there is nothing to get you of the plan!!!
You have dieted and bled for 12 weeks to get to this point!
You know cheating can distroy those 12 weeks it took!!!
Right now you don’t care about sugar, salt, fat, alcohol….
You live to fuel your body!
Right now your body is so clean…
Every cell is working 100%
We keep a close eye on you to determin carbloading timing, kind of protein, workout timing…..
By tomorrow your body will release all excess water….
You will wake up and be amazed by these changes!
I personally love depletion week 🙂
I love to be so in tuned with my body!
I give my body respect for being so amazing in the changes I see!
And although you may think you will never do this crap ever again, as soon as you come of that stage you know you are “hooked” for live :))
Personal Training
Our bodies are not created equal!
We all have different shapes, different metabolic rates depending on genetics!
A Endomorph has hip to shoulder ratio is wider (meaning hips much wider that shoulder )!
Bigger legs than arms with a slower metabolic rate, and the tendency of obesity later in life!
If you are an Endomorph prepare yourself early and start weight training to keep your fat burning machine high!!!
Also density training can take care of the higher amount of intramuscular fat tissue in your body!!!
Make sure to get your thyroid and kidney check regularly …..
The Mesomorph is the lucky one when it comes to gaining lean muscle!
Hip to waist ratio about the same!
The desired X as we call it in Competition Training, which means nice shoulders, small waist. Nice quads!!!
Higher testosterone levels and metabolic rate!
Easy to gain muscle and lean out!!!
The Ectomorph is the unlucky skinny one, ore the skinny fat!
Build like a string bean, hip to shoulder ratio is the same, and no big difference in waist ratio….
Hard to build muscle!
Gains fat in the midd section!
Skinny until later in life!!!
Try to build muscle now and eat clean to prevent stomach fat!
Stay away from sugar….
Most people are a mix of two different types’
I know I have my calves and legs from my dad’s Mesomorph body, but my upper body and waist my mothers Ectomorph body type!
You can beat your genetics to some degree with training and diet!!!
Make it your work of art!!!
Endomorph : overtrain your legs to break down some of that big muscle, density training for intramuscular fat, build up your upper body to even it out!
Mesomorph ….lucky you 🙂
Next time I want to be born as a Mesomorph !!!
Ectomorph: keep weight lifting to build up those muscles ( it may take you a little longer)
Work on your clean eating habits..
We are all God’s special creations!
We are a little more than one week out from Our competition in Culver!
So what is it you need to expect?
1. Anxiety taking over especially if it is your first time!
Don’t worry, it’s not as dramatic as you think 🙂
You actually will have some fun and this will be
a great experience!!!
2. Everything will be anoying to you !!!
You have no patience left …..
It’s okay, it’s normal 🙂
Relax and take it easy!
3. You cry without reason!
Competitions are stressful ….
You want to give your best and are extremely
hard on yourself’
So you watch the next SPCA commercial and
break out into tears 🙁
Again, it is totally normal 🙂 drink some hot
Camomile tea and get over it!
4. You are making a big deal out of the diet and are
Not sure of you are following everything correctly!!!
You are fine!!! Take a deep breath and relax!
You are already there…no worries !!!
5. You want a divorce !!
Calm down… It’s not him…it’s you (lol)!
7. Everybody is after you!!!
No!!! You are nuts right now, because your
Estrogen levels are low and that’s hell for a female
Brain 🙂
7. You look terrible and you are not ready!!!
SHUT UP!!!
You look amazing and your hard work shows of 🙂
Now that we cleared this up (Lmbo) eat your dry chicken and asparagus, and drink your plain water!!!
See you soon 🙂
Remember : you are beautiful, amazing, strong and ready!!!
Angela and I love you!
We are proud of how far you have come!!!
Let’s do this!!!
Woot…woot…
